SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:15

¶ La locura está ligada en el corazón del niño; mas la vara de la corrección la hará alejar de él.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. Foolishness [is] bound in the heart of a child , etc.] That is, sin, the greatest of all folly; this is naturally in the heart of man; it is in the heart of a child, it is in him from his infancy; it is bound in his heart, it is rooted and riveted in him, being conceived in sin, and shapen in iniquity; it is what cleaves close to him, and he has a strong affection for and desire after: the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth, ( Genesis 8:21); so that he is not easily brought off of sin, or becomes wise; [but] the rod of correction shall drive it far from him ; the rod used by parents, for the correction of sin and folly, is a means of making children wise, and of restraining the folly that is bound up in them; and of reclaiming them from those sinful ways, which the folly of their hearts leads them to, and so in some measure of driving it far from them.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 15 - Sin is foolishness, it is in the heart, there is an inward inclinatio to sin: children bring it into the world with them; and it cleave close to the soul. We all need to be corrected by our heavenly Father.
